Abstract

The management of high blood pressure has included both pharmaceutical and non-pharmacological approaches. Despite the fact that anti-hypertensive medications efficiently lower blood pressure, the expense of health care is growing and is likely to continue to rise in the future. This article review emphasizes the usefulness of exercise modalities as an essential non-pharmacological tool and acceptable preventive measures that can be used to the treatment of hypertension in Malaysia.
